A creamy, deep white with warmth in the light and coolness when paired with a darker color. This is the definitive neutral, a necessity!

002 Porridge & Honey

If Scotsmen were stubborn about anything — and, in fact, they tended to be stubborn about quite number of things, truth be known — it was the virtues of oatmeal ‘parritch’ for breakfast.

Through eons of living in a land so poor there was little to eat but oats, they had as usual converted necessity into a virtue, and insisted that they liked the stuff.

— Claire, Dragonfly In Amber

003 Carol Peletier

Carol Peletier is fractured black hue, scattered into bits and fused together by the pure gold of Carol’s soul.

004 Wee Dram

“Och, easy, Sassenach. If ye can stand up, you’re not drunk.” He let go of the mantlepiece, took a step toward me, and crumpled slowly onto the hearth, eyes blank, and a wide, sweet smile on his dreaming face.

— Jamie, Dragonfly In Amber

005 Toad Lily

006 Brazillianite

Touches of warm yellow on a dark yellow base, a lovely contrast when used with more active colorways.

007 Daryl Dixon*

Daryl Dixon a neutral camo tan, with strong blood & gore red/brown overtones and just a bit of gold shining through.

*Color not available in Flax

008 Platinum

A steady, lovely, glowing grey which can stand on it’s own, or just ‘be there’ for any other color you choose!

009 Pewter

With Pewter you get contrast, but with a milder bite than Coal. This blocky marriage of medium and dark greys will pair beautifully with any of our other yarns.

010 Edinburgh

A small, elderly mane of neat, precise habits … Ned Gowan was a solicitor. Born, bred, and educated in Edinburgh, he looked the part thoroughly.

— Claire, Outlander

011 Mr. Jesmond

An architect/surveyor works in black and white, which is also the color of the dreary surroundings Mr. Jesmond finds himself in on his last job before a weekend away with Jenny.

A fine, masculine, no-nonsense, serious colorway, Mr. Jesmond is black, white (cream) and grey. That’s it.

012 Dakota Prairie

The greens, golds, browns and oranges that seem to inhabit the prairie year round, mixed together in a blocky color way.

013 Old Fashioned Villain*

‘Every fairy tale needs a good Old Fashioned Villain.’

It seems simple, just black, right? But look deeper, there’s some grey, a bit of cream, even some sharp red hues that move toward a cerise. That’s because an Old Fashioned Villain isn’t as simple as one might think. Perfect for your favorite Consulting Knitter.

*Color not available in Flax

014 Coal*

Not just black, but a combination of colors overdyed with the darkest grey to create layers of black with unusual glints of lighter grey.

*Color not available in Flax

015 Straighten Your Knocker*

Straighten Your Knocker brings all of the rich, masculine colors of the portal into Sherlock’s world together into one beautiful colorway.

Deep browns, bronze yellows, black and a hint of scarlet; all wrapped up in a rich palette that would please any gift recipient who only wants “brown” (while also satisfying the knitting partner who wants a bit more excitement!)

*Color not available in Flax

016 Officer Grimes*

Officer Grimes is a blend of the beautiful blue of his Georgia patrol car; the deep, rich brown of his iconic hat, the warm tan of his uniform with just a touch of creamy white.

*Color not available in Flax

017 Freckled Iris

018 Augusts Humid Decline

Inspired by the colors of an abstract painting by Caroline Wright, this was originally a color from our DK Yarn club in Winter 2016, and has now joined the ranks of our “freckled” yarns!

020 Emerald*

The city, the isle, Emerald has always been the signature shade of the color green – and here’s our take on this exquisite hue!

*Color not available in Flax

022 Jade

Deep green and brighter touches of light create the creamy beauty of natural jade in this semi-solid yarn.

023 Sherlocks Kitchen

It’s fitting that the color scheme of Sherlock’s Kitchen is green – all shades of green! We’ve never seen him eat a salad, but he’s surrounded with greenery. Light green, medium green, leaf green, industrial green, jade, olive, spring, pistachio, honeydew – ALL THE GREENS!

024 Rory Gilmore

Still developing as a human being (aren’t we all!), Rory’s color is a lighter version of Lorelai, but still influenced by Emily, Sookie & Luke. Much of the colorway is white, allowing her room to continue to paint her own palette.

025 Epidote/Dragon Rhagal

His green scales are a dark green, the green of moss in the deep woods at dusk, just before the light fades, and they gleam like jade. His teeth and claws are black. — A Clash Of Kings

*Color not available in Flax

A lovely warm light-olive green.

026 Swan Nebula

027 Sunrise In Glory

029 Call Box Blue

This is the Fifth of our six TARDIS Call Box Blue gradient, and we think it’s the coolest. Just like fezzes and bow ties.

030 Aquamarine

There’s nothing sea-foamy about our Aquamarine!

This is the color of the beautiful Mediterranean, but from 5 feet down! Light is barely visible, just enough to make the bluish-green glow!

031 Beauty Brienne

Brienne hails from Tarth, the “Sapphire Isle,” and this color represents the rich greens of the island and the blue of the surrounding seas.

“To prevent Brienne of Tarth from being raped, Ser Jaime Lannister misleads the Brave Companions into believing that Tarth is known as the Sapphire Isle because of an abundance of gemstones. In actuality, the name comes from the color of its waters.” — A Wiki Of Ice And Fire

*Color not available in ModeFlax

032 Gilmarite

A mix of strong green and mid blue tones on an aqua base floats over touches of warm yellow.

033 Carl Grimes

Carl Grimes is the iconic blue jean mixed with a strong black and white and touches of red.

034 Loch Ness/Bristol Pool*

Everybody into the pool? I have to struggle to keep all of my colorways from being different shades of blue, I love the color so much! What I particularly love about THIS blue colorway, Bristol South Pool, is that it’s so changeable. Nice blue, nice aqua, and they all swim nicely with NO HORSEPLAY.

This color ALSO nicely doubles as Loch Ness, one of our Caledonian Colors from our No Spoilers collection!

*Color not available in Flax

035 Sister Julienne

This could be named for any of the nuns at Nonnatus House, but Sister Julienne seems the most deserving of her own color. The medium cool blue of the nun’s habits blocked with the white of their wimples and barbettes is one of the more comforting sights in Poplar.

036 Sapphire

A generous and lively blue, not as dark as Lazurite or as attention-grabbing as Aquamarine, it’s a beautiful and compelling BLUE that sings when knit up with any of our other colors!

*Color not available in Flax

037 Lyanna Blue

Lyanna’s abduction by Rhaegar Targaryn (who had earlier rebuffed his wife, Elia Martell, at a tournament at Harrenhal to present a blue winter rose laurel to Lyanna) sets the stage for the entire saga of A Song of Ice And Fire, and may provide the plot point upon which the drama concludes (rumors abound online…)

*Color not available in Flax

038 Night Music

Perhaps the most beautiful, at least to me, of our Night palette, Night Music is a symphony of Blue, violet, green and sharp yellow with just a touch of magenta. Running through this color, as through all our Night colors, is the inevitable trail of black.

Night makes every color more mysterious.

*Color not available in Flax

039 Crab Nebula

040 Mercury

Strong red & pink tones on light orange base with a touch of yellow, hot – like the planet for which it was named!

041 A Study In Pink

A Study In Pink references the myriad shades of the victim’s coat, shoes, suitcase and – most important – cell phone, blended in a vibrant, snappy colorway which would work magnificently with any neutral, or with an equally sizzling tones!

042 Spessartine

Reminiscent of a golden sunset, orange red highlighted with deep pinks are mixed with creamy undertones.

043 Rose Quartz

The lightest of pure pinks, this semi solid will work beautifully with many of our Freckled and Flow colors, a new neutral!

044 Plum Jasper

Sometimes Pink & Black play nice, like on a Chanel box, but in this colorway they’ve met in a dark alley and are halfway through a rip roaring night on the town. And they might not be home for breakfast.

045 Michonne / Mrs. Moss

A rich, vibrant blend of pinks, purple and reds over a base of deep brown, reflecting her passion (both in terms of intense emotion and intense suffering)

047 Daenerys Eyes / London General

In the books the Targeryens are a family known for their silver-blonde hair and purple eyes.

This color actually will resonate more with the readers of the books than the HBO viewers, but it allows us to have a beautiful purple color (without resorting to the particular shade of Joffrey’s face at the “Purple Wedding”)

*Color not available in Flax

048 Lavender

049 Red Wedding*

Dynastic marriages aren’t love matches, they’re contracts. When Robb Stark broke his contract with Walder Frey of the Twin Towers and marries Talisa, the stage is set for a massacre. By the time the check comes, everyone has either been killed, or has killed someone. Good times.

But is the Red Wedding solely the work of the Freys?

“The Lannisters send their regards.” ―Roose Bolton

“Explain to me why is it more noble to kill ten thousand men in battle than a dozen at dinner.“―Tywin Lannister

*Color not available in Flax

050 Dragonfly Inn

Touches of pink, purple and yellow bring in the best colors from both Loreliai and Sookie’s individual palettes, mixed with green for the beautiful location of the Dragonfly Inn. It seems like a GREAT place for a knitting retreat, huh?

051 Betty Confetti

Reds, purples and golds blend together in speckles of color over Pearl yarn. Available in all yarn bases!

053 Glenn Rhee*

Glenn Rhee is a faded red (for his ubiquitous baseball cap) and a deep black (for his beautiful hair) mixed in a dependably repeating color, it will either stripe or pool, depending on how it’s worked up.

Glen is a color you can use for backup, an interesting base, something that will blend in right up until the moment you need him (to kill a Walker, or to provide an interesting counterpoint to a lighter color.)

*Color not available in Flax

055 Amethyst

The rich, glowing purple of Amethyst hovers between a cool blue and a firery red, making it one of the most universally loved colors.

057 Mary's Maids

Mary’s Maids is a celebration of purple (sorry, Lilac) in subtle, semi-solid beauty! This colorway would work beautifully with any other color in the 221B series – or with many of our Semi Precious colors.

This is a subtle, ladylike colorway, nothing too extravagant. Charming, likable, not unlike Mary herself.

But there’s some depth there, too,

058 Thistle

Reaching, he took the package from my lap and tore away the wrapping, revealing a wide silver band decorated in the highland interlace style, a small and delicate Jacobean Thistle bloom carved in the center of each link.

— Claire, Outlander

060 Sookie St. James

Sookie’s colors are the rich brown of her auburn/red hair combined with her signature chef’s jacket color of magenta, blended with a touch of gold (reflecting her natural warmth and joyfulness.)

061 Chabazite

Rich orange and subtle pink tones blend onto a yellow base make a color with a bit more life than the average orange blend.

062 A Lovely Thing*

Dressing for an evening out, a compact is spied, “What a lovely thing!”

But it’s a reminder of a brutal and tortured past, not lovely at all. Beauty can hide pain. Aqua, pink, gold & red are divided by strong slashes of black; a defining colorway.

*Color not available in Flax

063 Community Clinic*

The ante natal clinics have moved into a beautiful new Community Center, resplendent in it’s cheery, hopeful mid-century colors. Lush corals, aqua, yellows and tans with just a hint of white make up this colorway which is perfect for babies (and adults of all ages!)

*Color not available in Flax

065 Red Coat*

“So my sister was alone in the house, except for two or three of the women servants, and they all rushed upstairs to hide their heads under the bedclothes when they saw the red coats. Thought the soldiers were sent by the devil.

“And I’ll no just say they were wrong.”

— Jamie, Outlander

*Color not available in Flax

066 Night Circus*

The first in our “Night” colors, vibrant shades of peacock, emerald, gold and scarlet are married with a repeating black, then over dyed in a very light orange for a surreal colorway.

Night makes every color more mysterious.

067 Lorelai Gilmore

The colorway is a mix of black (Lorelai’s raven locks) & brown (coffee!!) with the character influences of Emily’s yellow, Sookie’s pink & Luke’s true blue nature.

069 Luke Danes

Luke is true blue. From his baseball cap (a gift from Lorelai) to the walls of his diner, blue looks good on Luke and sums up his dependable nature.

070 Emily Gilmore

Emily’s color base is an elegant platinum with touches of golden yellow and light pink, reflecting both the cool and the warm aspects of her personality.

080 Dragon Drogon*

Drogon’s scales are black, his horns and spinal plates are blood red,and his eyes are smouldering red pits. — A Dance With Dragons

*Color not available in Flax

081 Lannister Gold

One of the constants of A Song of Ice And Fire is the sheer wealth of the Lannister family. Clever and powerful, House Lannister’s words are “Hear Me Roar!” but unofficially their motto is “A Lannister always pays his debts.” They have the means and will power to pay any debt in full.

The Lannisters never declined, graciously or otherwise. The Lannisters took what was offered — Tyrion Lannister

082 Buckeye

The rich, reddish brown colors of the buckeye nut make it a gorgeous harbinger of Fall. The yarn color is created by underdyeing pinks, yellows and orange, then allowing the yarn to set and dry completely. After that it’s overdyed with a rich brown, allowing hints of the warmer tones to come through.

101 Stirling Flow

The FLOW version of Edinburgh, Stirling features the deep greys and blacks of highland stone plus the almost iridescent greens of the parks of Stirling.

102 Lazurite Flow

A strong blue with overtones of blue/black make this an unforgettable colorway.

103 Lilac FLOW

The beautiful lilac can grow from palest white to deep, rich purple. Our bright, subdued mix of purple and lavender create a lovely base for a project.

104 Iris Flow

The FLOW version of Thistle, Iris gradients the colors we love from the beautiful Springtime flower; deep purple, magenta, yellow and stunning green.

106 Hydrangea Flow

Depending on the soil, a hydrangea plant can flower in colors ranging from light pink to deep purple or cool blue. This FLOW colorway attempts to capture them all!

107 Fuchsia

The fuchsia plant creates the richest, brightest, deepest pink and purple around. Here is MKY’s FLOW interpretation of this lovely flower!

109 Licorice All Sorts Flow

Even if you’re not a licorice fan, the bright colors that pour from the All Sorts bag is endlessly inspiring! Pink, yellow and black flow into each other in this lovely long-changing gradient.

110 Wulfentine Flow

Yellows and reds marry with shades of orange in a strong, blocky colorway with a rich life of it’s own.

111 Jennie Kissed Me

Cream, black and grey, but with the beautiful deep yellow and gold that Jenny seems to favor so much in her ‘nicer’ dresses. This is a color which can stand on it’s own, now as a lovely FLOW colorway.

112 Shabby Chic Flow*

Our No Spoilers color from “Midwife Speaking”, Community Clinic, has been so popular that we’ve created a FLOW version of the pinks, aqua, yellow and brown that meld together so beautifully!

*Color not available in Flax

113 Granite Flow

Strong like the stone, with the depth of color you’d expect from a felsic intrusive igneous rock. Pair this with a second FLOW color for a mind blowing experience!

114 Pinks FLOW

The FLOW version of our popular “A Study In Pink”, this is a lovely poem of pink, from lightest petal to hot fucsia.

116 Côte d'Azure FLOW

The FLOW version of Gilmarite, breaking down that glorious symphony of blues and yellows into a lovely long stride of yellow to green to deep blue.

117 Oy With The Poodles

118 Full Cask Flow

Full Cask is the FLOW version of our popular and versatile A Wee Dram from the No Spoilers collection, “Caldonian Colors”

119 Pheasant FLOW

The FLOW version of our popular Mandarin Duck, it’s a festival of reds, oranges, mid range blues all joined with a through line of lovely golden yellow.

120 Cuckoo Wasp

Inspired by the beautiful South American Cuckoo Wasp (it deposits it’s eggs in other wasp species nests, the larve hatch relatively quickly and eat the host’s eggs and larve – lovely…) this overdyed FLOW color is one of our hardest to dye, but we think it’s well worth it!
